Mike wh not go with a true suspension lift of 4inches then. A 2in LK willnot raise your truck at all and you will still have to eventually replace those springs. With a package you will get new springs. You also got to remember the X has a long WB and if you are going to fast you will skip a little sideways like a pickup does when you hit a bump.

The kit actually includes new springs up front and blocks in back which I plan to combine with new springs. I really don't want a 4" lift because it's a daily driver. I figure the 2" lift will bring it to slightly higher than stock. I wouldn't have gone with any lift if not for the fact that the stock F350 springs are something like $170 each compared to $270 wholesale for the lift kit.

The Bilsteins I have are two weeks old and Bilstein says they can be used with a light lift so i'm going to cross my fingers...

I hope this is helping the original poster. I didn't mean to thread high-jack.
